Anti Doping

All athletes have the right to compete in sport knowing that they, and their competitors, are clean.

We British Taekwondo Council Ltd (hereinafter British Taekwondo Council) believe in clean ‘Taekwondo’ and work in partnership with UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) and our International Federations to ensure that the integrity of Taekwondo is protected.

The use of performance-enhancing drugs and other doping behaviour severely damages the legitimacy of sport and undermines the integrity of clean athletes.

Anti-Doping Rules

British Taekwondo Council has in place a set of anti-doping rules that all athletes, coaches and athlete support personnel must abide by. The anti-doping rules for British Taekwondo Council are consistent with the World Anti-Doping Code (2015 Code), which governs anti-doping internationally.

The anti-doping rules of British Taekwondo Council are the UK Anti-Doping Rules published by UK Anti-Doping (or its successor), as amended from time to time. Such rules shall take effect and be construed as the rules of British Taekwondo Council.

If you are a member of British Taekwondo Council then the anti-doping rules apply to you, regardless of the level at which you participate.
